The University of Bergamo will be hosting the 5th International
Conference
on Late Modern English from Wednesday 28 to Friday 30 August 2013.
This
follows on from four very successful conferences on Late Modern
English
(Edinburgh, 2001; Vigo, 2004; Leiden, 2007; and Sheffield,
2010).
Call for Papers:
The theme of the 2013 conference will be 'Transatlantic
Perspectives on
Late Modern English'. We are therefore particularly interested in
papers
which take an innovative approach to studies of LModE in and beyond
Europe, varieties of LModE outside Britain, etc. Proposals for round
tables, workshops and/or software demonstrations are welcome; an
e-poster
session will also be possible.
We are accepting abstracts of max 500 words, excluding references, in
pdf,
doc, or txt format. Abstracts should be submitted through the
following
site:

Submission deadline: 15 December 2012
Notification of acceptance: after 15 December 2012
